Description: Adeno-Associated Virus Serotype 3 (AAV3) shares 82% sequence homology with AAV2, and like AAV2, requires Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycan (HSPG) for cellular attachment. AAV3 vectors transduce human liver cancer cells extremely efficiently because AAV3 utilizes the human Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor (hHGFR) as a co-receptor for viral entry, which is highly expressed in these cells. Both the extracellular domain and the intracellular kinase domain of hHGFR are required for AAV3-mediated transgene expression. These AAV3 particles constitutively express the firefly (Photinus pyralis) luciferase and eGFP genes connected via a T2A linker, under the control of a CMV promoter. The T2A self-cleaving peptide (derived from Thosea asigna virus 2A) leads to the efficient cleavage of the transcript, and expression of luciferase and eGFP as two separate proteins.
Formulation: AAV was produced in HEK293-AAV cells and is supplied in PBS-MK (PBS Magnesium-Potassium) buffer with 0.01% Pluronic F68.
Purification: The purity of the AAV particles was confirmed to be greater than 90% by staining with One-Step Lumitein™ UV Protein Gel Stain (Biotium, 21005-1L). The purity will vary with each lot; the exact value will be provided with each shipment.
Storage Stability: AAV is shipped with dry ice. For long-term storage, it is recommended to store AAV at -80°C.
Supplied As: Two vials (50 µl x 2) of AAV at a titer ≥1 x 1012 TU/ml. The titer is determined by qPCR and will vary with each lot; the exact value will be provided with each shipment.
Warnings: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
Biosafety Level: BSL-1
